Grenell: Kurti and Osmani must select a date for elections and form the CSM

Former US Presidential Special Envoy for Kosovo-Serbia Dialogue, Richard Grenell, emphasized that now, after Serbia had reduced the number of its troops along the administrative line with Kosovo, it was time for the Pristina authorities to determine the date for holding elections in the four municipalities in the north.

Following his meeting with the Serbian Minister of Defense, Milos Vucevic, Grenell stated that he had heard directly from Vucevic this morning that Serbia welcomed the presence of more NATO troops in Kosovo.

"This morning I heard directly from the Minister of Defense in Serbia that they welcome the presence of more NATO troops in Kosovo and that they have dramatically decreased the number of Serbian troops along their border. This is great news. Albin Kurti and Vjosa Osmani must now select a date for elections in the North and create the Association of Serbian Municipalities," Grenell said.
